The preparation of the site for arranging the lawn with a roll method is no different from the preparation of the site for the lawn of the seeds created by sowing. The difference is only in the time of introduction of a complex fertilizer. If in the case of sowing grass, the fertilizer is applied the day before sowing grass, then in the case of rolled lawn – a week before rolling rolls. Fertilizer is applied to the entire area of the lawn and mixed with the soil with a rake.
If the purchased rolls are planned to be rolled out no later than three days after the purchase, then they can be put into stacks of 3-4 rolls. If it is not possible to meet such terms and roll rolls within three days is not possible, then the rolls must be expanded in a shady place and pour water with water.
Lay rolls on the lawn is best in the fall, before the first frost. It is possible to lay them in early spring. In this case, a prerequisite will be watering.
The process of laying rolls is carried out on a dry, calm day.
Start laying rolls is more convenient from the side of the lawn, which is closer to the place of warehouses of rolls. The process of laying rolls looks like this: before laying the roll, you need to carefully examine it from the inside. If sockets or weeding are found, they need to be removed. Then the roll is laid out on the lawn in the right place and pressed by the load. As a load, you can use several thick boards. After that, with a handle, press the pine through boards to the lawn. It is necessary to press, and not drive.
After compacting, it is necessary to check the horizontality of the plane of the Turn. Pits and tubercles must be leveled. Align the soil under the bath, and not the turf itself. Attempts to align the Turn can lead to his death. After alignment, the process of tamping is repeated.
You can’t walk on the just laid lawn. You can move around it using a board.
After laying the first sheet of the Turn, we lay the second, tightly adjusting the joints of the sheets. Lanes of rolled lawn are laid only in a straight line. If the edge of the lawn has a curved shape, then you need to cut the sheet of turfs along the contour of the edge of the lawn.
The neighboring stripes of the roll should be laid with a displacement along the length, as when laying brick. The cracks between the strips of the roll are filled with a mulch. This is a material that is used to preserve moisture in the soil and suppress weed growth. As mulch, you can use sawdust, chips, compost, small gravel, etc.P.
The final stage of laying roll lawn is a trim of edges. It must be remembered that the roll lawn tolerates drought much worse than the sowing lawn. Therefore, it needs to be watered regularly and plentifully..
